“…These biomolecules are also added in animal feed, in aquaculture, for example, they are sources of pigmentation for fish and crustaceans [34] [39]. This sector of animal feed is the sector with the highest growth, and it is estimated that it will comprise the largest carotenoid market in 2023, according to the Global Carotenoid Market [5].…”

“…Most of the commercialized carotenoids are from vegetable extraction and chemical synthesis. Some problems in the production and commercialization of these dyes, such as seasonal and geographical variability, cannot be controlled [5]. On the other hand, chemical synthesis is a generally complex process that causes the formation of hazardous and inappropriate waste when disposed of in the environment; also, this is not considered safe for health [6].…”

“…The carotenoids extracted from these organisms stimulate applications in cosmetic products, as they have antioxidant properties, solubility and stability in oil-in-water emulsions, which are attractive for application in sunscreens and other anti-UV products [18] [19], including generating a patente [20]. β-carotene, lycopene, and astaxanthin are among the carotenoids described and used as photoprotection due to their antioxidant action, which acts against free radicals induced by UV radiation to protect the skin against erythema [5] [21].…”

Carotenoids are isoprenoid pigments used in food, chemical, textile, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. They act not only as dyes and provitamins A but also have antioxidants, photoprotective, antimicrobial properties, among others. This class of pigment can be obtained traditionally by plants or chemical synthesis, but they have some disadvantages. In recent years, search for alternative sources has been an important strategy for the carotenoid industries. Microbial synthesis is an alternative that has shown good yields, speed, and reduced production costs. Hostile environments, such as the Caatinga domain, represent an interesting source of microorganisms that produce biomolecules, especially carotenoids, because of oxidative stress caused by sunlight. Thus, this region has been attracting the attention of the scientific community and industry for the use of these organisms in the production of carotenoids and applications in cosmetic products; since these compounds have interesting antioxidant and photoprotective properties. In this review, general characteristics of carotenoids, sources of production, industrial applicability, and commercialization will be discussed, as well as perspectives on the production of carotenoids from microorganisms isolated from the Caatinga and their application in anti-UV products.

“…Carotenoids are a class of antioxidant compounds that exists widely in nature, especially in all colored fruits, vegetables, and flowers; they have important health effects, e.g., exert preventive activity against chronic diseases. The estimated value of the global market of carotenoids in 2017 was 1.5 billion USD, and the value was forecasted to reach 2.0 billion USD in 2022 [ 4 ].…”

Agro-industrial waste is a largely untapped natural resource of bioactive compounds including carotenoids and pectin. However, conventional solvent extraction involves the excessive use of organic solvents, costly equipment, and tedious operation. These limitations of conventional extraction methods could be prospectively overcome by the carotenoid–pectin hydrocolloidal complexation. The complexation of lycopene and pectin was efficiently promoted in an aqueous environment, resulting in the colloidal complexes that can be subsequently recovered by sedimentation or centrifugation. In this study, the potential of carotenoid–pectin complexation on tomato pomace containing carotenoids and pectin was evaluated. Tomato pomace is a rich source of lycopene, β-carotene as well as pectin, making it suitable as the raw material for the carotenoid extraction. The extraction of carotenoid and pectin from tomato pomace was optimized using response surface methodology. The maximum recovery was 9.43 mg carotenoid fractions/100 g tomato pomace, while the purity of carotenoid-rich fractions was 92%. The antioxidant capacity of carotenoids extracted from the complexation method was found to be higher than that from the solvent extraction method. Moreover, extraction yield and antioxidant capacity of carotenoid obtained from the carotenoid–pectin complexation were comparable to that from solvent extraction. The carotenoid–pectin complexation is a promising green approach to valorize agro by-products for the extraction of valuable carotenoids.

“…El consumo global de carotenoides tuvo un crecimiento de 1500 toneladas métricas entre el 2007 (4193 ton) y 2017 (5693,6 ton) y se espera que esta cifra llegue hasta las 622,6 ton para el 2022, lo cual se refleja en el mercado global que tuvo un crecimiento estimado para el 2017 de 1.5 billones de dólares, no obstante, otros estudios pronostican una cifra de US$2,0 billones de dólares para el 2022 (Bogacz-Radomska;Piwowar, 2020).…”
